I have a couple of ??'s here...and I'm still new to linux...but have felt that I have looked everywhere for it...
1st question: I have /etc/skel w/ public_html in it... I have /etc/skel setup for the following permissions. drwx--x--x 3 root root 1024 Nov 29 12:45 skel I also have public_html setup for: drwx--x--x 2 root root 1024 Nov 29 12:45 public_html Now when I do adduser temp2 .. this is what happens to these two directories under /home drwxr-sr-x 3 temp2 temp2 1024 Nov 29 14:25 temp2 now public_html drwx--s--x 2 temp2 temp2 1024 Nov 29 14:25 public_html Why do these not show up as the way they are supposed to????????? The main thing I am trying to accomplish is to make sure other users are not able to see up above their own directory. The only way I can fix this is via chmod go-r and go-s on the above files. What do I do??? 2nd Question: I have a file index.html in the public_html directory and here is what it looks like: -rw-r--r-- 1 temp2 temp2 961 Nov 29 14:25 index.html This file pulls up correctly under /~temp2/index.html Now if I were to u/l a file via WS_FTP say download.html here is what happens: -rw-r----- 1 temp2 temp2 3886 Nov 29 14:32 download.html -rw-r--r-- 1 temp2 temp2 961 Nov 29 14:25 index.html Now look at the difference between index and download.... Also I am not able to pull download.html up via my browser I get a permission denied message. In order to fix this I would need to chmod o+r. Please help...... I would hate to have to fix each users' directory...my fingers would get really really tired. Thanks in advance. William Flores System Operator
